How are you feelin'? I'm married with three kids, love cooking (when I find the time) and love old video games. I'm a retro nerd who loves to reminisce about the '80s and '90s and am an autism-awareness advocate.

Congratulations have to go to Selah Intermediate School. They raised the most food and donations in the recently completed 10 Deeds in 10 Days food and cash drive. In return, they will take over our radio station for one full day.

It gave gamers a chance to play video games for 24 hours straight, requesting donations for the good of the cause. Players chose the local children's charity of their choice and started playing. This year, the national total came to $5,102,500.90!

As you've probably noticed, many of your favorite DJs in town are the same voices on many commercials. Kelly West from 94.5 KATS and I had the task of making a new commercial for Terror on the Ave. Here's a sneak peek at what it's like to record a commercial around here.

There are two things I'm very passionate about: my kids and my video games. Extra Life combines both of those into a great cause. It gives me a chance to play video games for 24 hours straight and, through fundraising, it helps the kids in Yakima through the Memorial Foundation, which benefits Children's Village, pediatrics at Yakima Valley Memorial Hospital and more!

We've all had those days where you'd forget your head if it weren't screwed on. Days where you pop something on the stove, but forget to turn it on, days where you can't find the sunglasses that are on top of your head... Today, I had one of those days.

If there's enough of a fanbase, there's a convention for it out there. Comic book fans have Comic Cons. Coffee lovers have Coffee Fest and just about anything else you can think of. There's even a 'Hello Kitty Con' in LA. Video games are no exception as they're a multi-billion dollar industry. Over the weekend, I attended the Portland Retro Gaming Expo in Portland Oregon. It's a great way to showcase the roots of video gaming from where it began to where it's going.
